Uganda

The Pearl of Africa awaits you, rich in wildlife and natural beauty.

Where else, in the space of ten days, can one hike to within meters of endangered mountain gorillas and chimpanzees; navigate the waterways in search of the elusive the shoebill bird, hippos and elephant; explore the savannah grasslands teaming with thousands of topi, Ugandan Kob antelope and buffalo; or get to witness Uganda’s legendary tree-climbing lions? And if the above is not enough, Uganda is a birder’s paradise with 1008 recorded species. It is also the source of the longest river in the world, the River Nile.

Uganda is landlocked in the heart of Africa. Straddling the Equator, its shores lie on the majestic Lake Victoria, the largest lake in Africa and second largest freshwater lake in the world! If you think that typical African countryside does not offer you endless rolling green hills, snow-capped mountains, misty forests and deep, crystal clear lakes, then you haven’t been to Uganda!

Even though Uganda is a small country, it offers all of this and a lot more, including white water rafting, exceptional game viewing, birding and some fantastic hiking. It’s here that the eastern savannah meets the west African jungle. In a nutshell, there is no other African destination that offers such a diverse variety of activities and wildlife encounters.
